2014 Suzuki Swift 1.6L Petrol · FN14 ODC

The Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 February 2026 at 70,086 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes show no advisories or faults flagged across the preceding three years. Recorded mileage sits at 70,086 against a 2014 build, averaging roughly 5,840 miles per year. The DVSA data shows light and consistent use: 65,971 miles at the July 2023 test, 68,617 by July 2024, 69,100 in August 2025, and 70,086 in February 2026. A failed entry on 11 July 2024 at 68,617 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentational failure rather than a mechanical fault, with the same-day pass confirming the car was then compliant. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repair. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's twelve years. Low annual mileage often means long standing periods that accelerate rubber perishing and surface rust even where the MOT shows clear. The absence of advisories across five tests suggests prior owners kept the car to test standard, but the 2024 duplicate entry warrants confirmation the failure was clerical and not a withheld defect.
